Jeez I read a thread on that forum once it was god know how many pages abiut a guy that had a white Vauxhall nurburg ring edition VXR and the guy was mad the stuff he was doing.

The car was bought brand new and he was checking the thickness of the layers of paint with some tool and ended up putting something like close to 50 layers of wax. WTF that is anal as you like :grin:

I'd agree that Dodo are fantastic waxes (used most of them and it is all down to budget and colour as to which you choose) but I personally have not used JetSeal before.  It sounds a bit like overkill using both and I'd want to check first (if it was me) with Dodo that their wax will bond to a surface that has been JetSealed.  Some sealants like OptiSeal are fine to put before a wax but others like Nanolex are not.

Dodo waxes offer better durability if the paint if properly prepared with their Lime Prime pre wax cleaner.  2-3 coats of wax should keep your ride protected for several months.  I'd leave a day between coats to allow to cure. 

Hope this helps


do you work for dodo juice?

LOL, no I don't work for them... I did used to work for the Australian distributor (before I came back to the UK) so I've used them loads  :smiley:

Hard work pays off! How did you find the Bilt hamber clay? Did u use water as a lube? My first time claying, so all tips please  :grin:

Water as lube worked for me, just make sure its really wet and slippery!
